Did someone see William ignore her? How embarrassing! Paisley turned around stiffly. Behind her, Ashley had a sly smile on her face. "Miss Anthony, I have something very important to tell you." "What's the matter?" Paisley looked at the woman in front of her as she was an unfamiliar face. Other than seeing her at the talent show tonight, she was certain that she had never seen her before. Since that was the case, she could infer that this woman was of mundane status. Seeing Paisley checked her out, Ashley immediately introduced herself, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Valeria's sister!" "What do you have to say to me, Miss Brown?" Since Ashley said that she and Valeria were sisters, Paisley naturally addressed her as Miss Brown. A trace of embarrassment flashed across Ashley's face, and she immediately explained, "I took my mother's surname. My surname is Evans, and my name is Ashley." "What do you want to say, Miss Evans?" A
Valeria was at a loss for words when she heard Hardy's voice. William smirked and looked at her mockingly. Valeria knew what he was thinking about, even without him saying anything. "Didn't you say you didn't have anything with him? Why is he here then?" Valeria's face turned red. Hardy knocked on the door a few more times before he shouted, "Valeria! Can I come in? I brought you something to eat!" She did not want to let him in. Her hair and clothes were both messed up by William, and her lips were also swollen from the kiss. How could she let him see her like this? She immediately refused, "Mr. Anthony, I am already in bed!" When William heard her answer, he thought that Valeria was worried that their relationship would be exposed to Hardy, so he scoffed mockingly. He angrily got off the bed to leave, but Valeria was startled by his actions. That b*stard! What was he trying to do? If he went out right now, she would be so embarrasse
"What?" Hardy was shocked and reached out to touch her forehead, "You didn't drink too much, did you?" "I'm not drunk. I'm telling you the truth. I just heard about it too," Paisley smiled bitterly. "If it weren't for her half-sister's plan to ruin her reputation, I don't know how long we would have been deceived for." After Ashley told her about Valeria and William's relationship, she put on an unbothered facade. Underneath that facade, however, was a worried heart. The more she thought about her interactions with William, the more unnatural she realized it was. It was obvious that William and Valeria were still caught up with each other. Paisley was depressed. She was sure that it would be easy to get him to fall for her, but she overestimated herself. Thinking about William's cold attitude towards her just now, she felt even more depressed. She hid in the corner and drank her wine sadly. "That doesn't count as lying, though. Aren't they ex
Valeria was extremely embarrassed and pushed Abbie into the room as she closed the door. She immediately explained, "I didn't do it on purpose... I didn't know you were here last night, and William was being so shameless. I couldn't do anything about it either!" "Pfft, one excuse after another! I don't believe that he could've forced his way through your stubbornness. I know you like him and can't forget about him!" Abbie didn't believe her. "Don't be angry. Okay, I admit that I can't forget him! It's all my fault. I shouldn't have ignored you! I'm sorry, and I promise this won't happen again!" "How can you treat that good-for-nothing b*stard like treasure? You make me so mad!" She retorted bluntly after hearing Valeria's confession even though she wasn't actually mad. She couldn't bear staying mad at her anymore after seeing Valeria's smile. "Alright, I don't have the strength to be angry with you anymore. I am starving. Let's go and eat something."
If she framed Valeria for being the one behind Lexis' beating, then simple-minded people like Charlotte would probably go to her for revenge. If the two of them got into a fight, Charlotte would definitely win because of her muscular build. Hardy would definitely do something about Charlotte if Valeria was beaten up by her. "This is a good way to kill two birds with one stone!" When she saw that she had hung up the phone, Ashley immediately walked over and greeted, "Hello, Miss Burtos!" Last night, when Charlotte saw Ashley was flirting with the rich man she was interested in, she drunkenly dumped alcohol all over her. Now that she was sober and Ashley had changed her clothes, she didn't recognize Ashley at all. "Who are you?" "Miss Burtos, I'm here to tell you something," Ashley walked over and said, "There was a conflict between your brother and someone else last night. I was right next to them when it happened." "What? So you
Abbie brought Valeria to the deck. William, the man with him, and the Anthony siblings were not there anymore. "Where's everyone? Where's my brother and his friends?" Abbie looked around but did not see Richard, so she called him. "Bro, where are you? Why can't I find you on the deck?" "I'm already on the yacht. You should come here with Valeria right now!" Richard replied. Abbie immediately brought them to the stairs that lead to the yacht, while Richard saw and waved at them. Compared to the ship, the yacht was much smaller. No wonder they needed a special list to control the number of people. The ship could withstand thousands of people, but the yacht could only fit tens of them. Valeria and Abbie went on the yacht and followed Richard into the cabin. The inside of the cabin was not small, and there were quite a few people sitting inside already. Valeria saw William at her first glance. He was sitting on the sofa with the young man who was with
William had tried every means to kiss Valeria, so when he finally succeeded, she became as red as a tomato because Abbie was still with them. She pushed William away. "Why are you so thick-skinned?" William acted as if nothing had happened. "You were the one who turned to me! I didn't do it on purpose. Why did you push me?" Valeria gritted her teeth and glared at him, "You're so shameless!" William touched his face and smiled evilly at her. Abbie, who was standing on the side, could not bear it any longer and pulled Valeria away. He did not follow and watched them leave. He still had a big ego, but his clinginess was only for Valeria. Valeria didn't look like she wanted to resist him. Maybe she only did so because Abbie was there. How troublesome. He didn't even do anything to Abbie, but she was getting in between him and Valeria. William already began thinking of ways to mess with her. William took out his phone and called Marcus. "Help
The more Andrew looked at Valeria, the more familiar she looked to him. However, he couldn't remember where he had seen her before. William was unhappy at the fact that Andrew kept staring at her. "Aren't you supposed to be fishing? How are you expected to catch any fish if you're not focused?" Andrew withdrew his gaze after hearing his words, "I just feel that Miss Brown looks a little familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen her before." He saw Mason as he spoke, and a look of realization appeared on his face. He said, "I remember now! Miss Brown looks like Mason's girlfriend." "She looks like Mason's girlfriend? Are you sure about that?" Paisley did not know about Valeria and Mason, so she was quite shocked at his statement. "I don't think I'm mistaken. I saw her once when I came back a few years ago," He stared at Valeria again, "That's right, it is her. I remember very clearly." "They broke up a long time ago!" William replied.
